Are unclean and unsanitary workspaces making Nigerians sick?
A wide majority of the world's office workers think so,concludes a new consumer research from a leading cleaning services provider. The research shows that 64 percent of office workers see a connection between a clean building and the number of times an employee calls in sick,citing longer hours at work with no increase in cleaning as one of the prime culprits that ultimately lead to unsanitary conditions.
The research shows that 85 percent of workers eat in their office space,and more than one in three admits to clipping nails at work. 22 percent say that they see a co-worker sneeze,cough or yawn nearly everyday with covering their mouth. And nearly one in two worker (45 percent) has seen co-workers leave the restroom without washing their hands. 30 percent of workers "sometimes" or "very often" retrieve thing from their trash cans in their office.
The job demands on Nigerian worker aren't easing,with so much of our time spent in the office,it's no surprise that we and our co-workers behave in ways that spread germs. What may be surprising,though,is the extent to which workers notice that their buildings are not being cleaned as effectively and thouroughly as the believe is possible.
The research also shows that,
85 percent of workers think regularly about the cleanliness of their office.
Only 40 percent of workers have "a lot of confidence" in their office cleaning team.
69 percent believe a clean office makes employees more productive.
We at Neluz Cleaning Services suggest the following tips for keeping your office safe and healthy.
* Use "spill proof" drink containers.
* Do not dispose off food in desk trash.
* Wipe phones with antimicrobial wipes on a daily basis.
* Wipe doorknobs and work surfaces with antimicrobial wipes during cold and flu season.
* Remove items (clutter) that impede or hinder the ability of the janitorial crew to clean adequately.
